The bathroom cabinet is affected with damp, which is a headache in daily life. Once it is soaked, mildewed, cracked and peeled, it is very troublesome to clean and take care of, and it will also shorten the service life of the bathroom cabinet.
As long as the following three points are paid attention to when purchasing the bathroom cabinet, you can avoid the damp pit of the bathroom cabinet.
1、The design method shall be suspension type
Generally speaking, 50% of the moisture in the bathroom comes from the ground. Because the water splashes all over the bathroom, it will inevitably wet the ground. Therefore, the direct contact of water droplets in the floor type bathroom cabinet will directly accelerate the time for the bathroom cabinet to become damp and deformed, and shorten its service life.
The design of the suspended bathroom cabinet can avoid the problem of direct deformation and moisture absorption of the bottom by keeping the cabinet away from the ground. At the same time, this design can make use of the maximum space. The space under the bathroom cabinet can be used to put things together, making more storage space available for the bathroom space that is not spacious. Moreover, it is easier to take care of when the lower part is suspended, and there is basically no sanitary dead space. Therefore, it is recommended to choose the hanging bathroom cabinet.
2、The material should be waterproof
The bathroom space in an ordinary family is often not large, so it is difficult to truly achieve complete separation of dry and wet. Therefore, in the selection of bathroom cabinet materials, attention should be paid to waterproof.
Bathroom cabinets can be roughly divided into waterproof multilayer solid wood bathroom cabinets, ceramic bathroom cabinets, PVC bathroom cabinets, density board bathroom cabinets, glass bathroom cabinets, stainless steel bathroom cabinets, etc. according to different cabinets materials.
Ceramics, PVC, acrylic, glass and stainless steel will not be affected by moisture, but the difference is that the appearance value is not high, the appearance design space is small, and it is fragile and deformed. Because the density board is made of crushed wood, its moistureproof ability is weak, and it is easy to mildew and deform. In addition, there is another kind of density board with solid wood veneer, which will also be painted with waterproof paint. It is easy to peel and fall off if it is too wet.
Waterproof multilayer solid wood bathroom cabinets are generally painted with waterproof paint. The waterproof property is better than the moisture resistance. No matter how large the water vapor is, it will not have too much impact on the boards. It will not deform, be affected by moisture, or be layered after several years of use. On the other hand, once the ordinary plates are stained with water or attacked by water vapor, mildew, water seepage and cracking will appear soon. In addition, the waterproof multi-layer solid wood is easy to make a difference in shape, with good texture, which can improve the bathroom’s appearance.
So from a comprehensive perspective, it is recommended to choose the bathroom cabinet made of waterproof multi-layer solid wood.
3、The hardware fittings should be rust and corrosion resistant
The hardware fittings of the bathroom cabinets are also easy to rust when encountering water vapor. If the door of the switch cabinet is not pushed and pulled smoothly due to rust, the sealing effect will be affected, and the moisture entering the cabinet will cause the stored items to be damp and mildewed; Or the material is brittle and easy to break and drop, so the bathroom cabinet is naturally not durable.
Therefore, in the selection of high-quality hardware accessories such as hinge and slide rail, hardware accessories with solid texture, corrosion resistance and rust resistance should be selected, which can also extend the service life of the bath cabinet.
According to the above three points to choose the bathroom cabinets, there is basically no mistake.
